  Picnic is over and the last of the group left for home this morning
  (Monday).   We thought of you more than once -- in the sense of "when
  Ian was here, we ..." .   Our son Bryan is back from Germany and
  stationed in Maryland.  He recalled the Ethiopian dinner he helped
  cook while you were here.   We got rid of the last bottle of that
  locally made Ethiopian Tej honey wine we had gotten for that meal.
  Folks liked it ok, even though it had been through a bit of abuse by
  us (in the sense of temp control, moving all around, etc.).   A little
  of it went into one of the risottos that Michael made.

      Title: NORTH-SOUTH ONION PANCAKES
 Categories: Chinese, Breads, Jue
      Yield: 8 Servings
 
      3 c  Flour, cake or all-purpose
      1 c  Boiling water
    1/4 c  Cold water
           -or more if dough
           -feels too dry
      3 tb Shortening
           Vegetable oil for pan frying

MMMMM--------------------------FILLING-------------------------------
      3 oz Boneless breast of chicken
           - skinned, diced
    1/2 ts Cornstarch
    1/4 ts Cooking sherry
    1/4 lb Chinese sausage; diced
      1 tb Chinese dried shrimp; minced
      1 ts Vegetable oil
      3 oz Chinese barbecued pork
           - diced
      1 bn Green onions; minced
      1 ts Oyster sauce (optional)
      1 ts Soy sauce
    1/4 ts Sugar
    1/4 ts Salt
 
  MEASURE FLOUR into a large mixing bowl; add boiling water, stirring
  quickly with chopsticks or fork, then add cold water and mix well.
  Work dough until smooth and supple. Roll dough into shape of a ball.
  Cover well with plastic wrap or damp cloth; set aside to rest for 1
  hour at room temperature. Place the chicken in a small bowl; add
  cornstarch, cooking sherry and pinch of salt. Set aside and
  refrigerate and let marinate until ready to use. Stir-fry Chinese
  sausage and dried shrimp in hot vegetable oil in a small frying pan
  over high heat for 1 minute. Add chicken with its marinade and
  stir-fry for another 2 minutes. Quickly stir in barbecued pork and
  3/4 cup of the minced onions. (Set aside remaining onions for pancake
  wrappers.) Immediately season with the oyster sauce, soy sauce, sugar
  and salt, and mix well. Turn off heat; divide into 16 portions and
  set aside. Knead dough until smooth and divide equally into 16
  pieces; cover with plastic wrap. Work 1 piece of dough at a time,
  keeping the rest covered in plastic wrap. Take a piece of dough and
  rub both sides with a bit of shortening, then roll out with a rolling
  pin to 6 inches in diameter. Again rub shortening (about 1 teaspoon)
  onto 1 side of the dough; sprinkle evenly with about 1 teaspoon
  minced scallions and a pinch of salt. Curl up the dough from 1 end
  into a long, narrow cylinder; then curl up again lengthwise into a
  snail-like cylinder. Place the dough on its broad side and roll out
  again with a rolling pin into a piece about 4 inches in diameter.
  Place one portion of filling in center of dough and seal well on top
  by pinching the dough like a dumpling. Flatten into a 2-inch-diameter
  onion pancake. Set aside. Repeat until all the dough is prepared. Pan
  fry the onion pancakes in a thin layer of hot vegetable oil over
  medium heat, about 2 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Pat
  the onion pancakes gently with a paper towel to remove excess oil
  before serving.
  
  Makes 16 Pancakes, or 8 Servings
